You were quite vague with your initial post and really it's hard to tell. So far I've had rattles/buzzing from: loose dash (missing upper screws, loose center support), air plenum (missing nuts that hold it to the firewall), loose cruise control module, broken trim, plastic electrical connectors resting against something hard, gauge cluster loose (missing one screw too)...but no electrical buzzing.
Can you replicate the noise or is it random? Does it do it at idle? What kind of electrical buzz (high tension, buzzing relay, speaker buzz from the radio, etc)? With it running, pull the fuse box cover and listen to see if there's any unusual noises coming from any of the relays. Are there any issues other than it being annoying?

Its like a buzzing relay or something, not speaker or anything. I noticed the ding relay sounds like its going to give, like the battery was almost dead but I think that has nothing to do with it. Its seems to come and go anytime, while idling and driving.
